It goes on to consider models of palliative care delivery and provide a more detailed account of the three elements of palliative care nursing–working directly with patients and families, working with other health and social care professionals to network and co-ordinate services, and working at an organisational level to plan, develop and manage service provision in local, regional and national settings. It concludes by detailing the challenges for palliative care nursing and outlines a possible way ahead.
